Anambra just flagged off her aetropolis project-a cargo airport with adjoining sub metropolis,even as imo state cargo airport is in top gear,while in portharcourt nkpogu and woji bridges are in top gear
Kenya,ghana pls go to bed y'all

I really wonder why many people feel there is no hope for Nigeria or Africa. Seriously, there is hope.

It's stupid to see Nigerians comparing their country to American, European or East Asian countries that have been building their countries for centuries when ours is just 56.

Nigeria has a great potentials as a nation, and the greater the potentials of a country, the greater problems it face while being built up. Many Nigerians really need to study the history of America from the 18th century and see for themselves.

Call me explorer numero uno,lol

My kenyan folks here is the new ly rehabilitated abuja airport runway,you were exasperated about

Basically, there is hardly any African city that can be compared to Abuja, because Abuja was a city planned 100% from the scratch. 25 years ago, it was a complete virgin land.
This is why Abuja is basically for the rich and high middle class people. Abuja has the largest and some of the best estates in Africa.

Where does this guy get all these pics

Seriously, help me ask him. Where do you usually get your pics?? Share with us. Cos all these Kenyans and Ghanaians need to be silenced once in a while.

Kudos and good job.

TayserMahiri:
You seem to think USA is poor in HDI. They actually hover around top ten and much of the reason why the do that badly is the level of illegal and legal migrants from places such as Mexico. Their HDI is very very very high. In your case, if we can take the countries that you like to claim as your peers e.g Brazil, Mexico, Indonesia and Turkey, you are light years off. Turkey is 71 st, mexico 77, Brazil 79, Indonesia 113 and you are a poor 152nd.

Out of all these countries, you forget that Nigeria is the youngest of all abi?
Brazil, Turkey and Mexico have been building their countries for hundreds of years!

Indonesia was colonized for hundreds of years and the Europeans established massive infrastructures there before leaving.

Are these the countries you expect Nigeria to easily beat?

O0XYGEN:
Hahahah you call those assembly cars indigenous manufacturing what?
Hahahah

You are nothing but a jealous bastarrd.

Read these fool,

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Innoson_Vehicle_Manufacturing

http://www.vanguardngr.com/2017/03/innoson-motors-establish-world-class-manufacturing-plant-uyo/

Innoson is about to establish a multi billion world class car manufacturing plant in Nigeria.

70% of all his car parts are made locally.

U imbecilles think Nigeria is your mate abi?

Just30:
we can have this discussion after I travel to Cape Verde

You needn't travel to China, USA or Japan before you acknowledge their achievements, so why Cape Verde?
The online statistics are there for you.

Cape verde beats Ghana in HDI and has a far higher income per capital than GH. That is all that matters.

So can we conclude that Cape verde is the most powerful and successful country in west africa??

O0XYGEN:
Seems you really love posting pictures.
OK let's post some of the beautiful roads/flyovers we have in our respective countries.
YOu agree?

I am not even good in posting pictures. You can do that challenge with arinzeejikonye, he is the master in posting pics.
I even wonder where he gets them from.

I only showed you that Nigerian movie industry has gone intercontinental. Has GH movie industry done that?

arinzeejikonye:
Afrione smart phone plant in lagos begins production

No great surprise.
Nigeria afterall is the only African country with a 100% indigenous car manufacturing company!

Where are those useless Ghanaians?
See what the Nigerian entertainment industry is doing!

Our movies are now being featured in the Toronto intl fim festival and making millions of dollars in blockbuster.

You guys should check out this movie!

O0XYGEN:
They've managed to build some few tall buildings in some small part of lagos and thats what they call development.
They don't have anything attractive in their useless underdeveloped country , always making noise with that useless GDP.
This is their lagos.
Filthy overcrowded smelly place

No, you depressed fool!
This is the Lagos we are talking about!

O0XYGEN:
Your lagos comes nowhere near Accra in terms of development and beauty yet that's de only place you idiots can boast of.
There's nothing attractive about nigeria so shut up.

Oga, is this the Accra that your citizens are crying for that you are claiming is better than Lagos?

#IcryforAccra!

DonnieTheGreat:
Lagos is the Pride of Africa!!.

Comparing lagos to New York,Yes!! am doing that!!


GDP

The Gdp of Lagos is $100 billion
http://www.vanguardngr.com/2016/11/lagos-emerged-fifth-largest-economy-africa/

The Gdp of New York is $1 trillion
http://www.deptofnumbers.com/gdp/new-york/

Meaning New York is only 10 times better than Lagos at least Economically

Age


Newyork:
Newyork was founded in 1624!!,
Manhattan was bought by the Dutch from the native Indians in 1662.That leaves the age of Newyork to around 400 years.

Lagos:
Lagos is just 50 years old!!

Economic Projections!!:


NewYork:
The current Gdp of New York in 2016 is roughly $1 trillion.

The Gdp of NewYork in 2006 was $1 trillion (11 years ago).

The GDp of New York in 1998 was $700 billion.(If you calculate inflation and convert it to today's money its still $1 trillion).

My point is that New York is not growing!!.

Lagos:
The current Gdp of Lagos is $1 trillion

The Gdp of lagos doubles every 2.5 years (very Conservative estimate).

Again,
If you do the Math in less than a decade!, Lagos might catch up with NewYork Economically!!



Why won't any sane person be proud of such a wonderful State!!.

Lagos is the pride of the black race

Infact eh, Lagos dey make cold dey catch me.
Lagos is estimated to be bigger than South Africa 2 years from now.

Lagos is getting richer at a faster rate than even New york. Hahahaha. Next we will compare Lagos and Tokyo while Ghanaians keep on hating in their sad Accra with no GDP.

O0XYGEN:
When did you become a capevedian?
At least try to compare your useless nigeria to Ghana.

Hahaha, Bros u don dey vex? Nor cry join o!

You were the fools who equated a high HDI to being a more succesful country. Was i the one?

Germany has the most powerful passport in the world. But can Germany compare USA?

O0XYGEN:
A country of about 180m people and you have only about 100 universities?

Are u kidding me?

Can't you see how foolish you are? Are universities the only tertiary institutions?

We have over 200 polythecnics and many more hundreds or even thousands of Colleges of health, Colleges of education, Technical colleges, Schools of Nursing and other tertiary institutions.

Naija and Ghana are not mates OK?

O0XYGEN:
Don't try shifting the argument ok
Are you from Cape verde?
Why didn't you say that useless good for nothing country(nigeria ) you hail from is rather better than Ghana.
Cape Verde is not even closer to Ghana in everything so shut up there.
slowpoke

Cape verde has a higher HDI (which is the summation of all human indexes) than Ghana.

Ghana is not even up to half of Cape verde in GDP per capital income (Unlike Nigeria that is ahead of Ghana in per capital income).

So u guys have nothing on cape verde.

Congratulations to Cape verde for being the most advanced, most powerful and developed nation in West Africa. ...Hahahahahaha USELESS GHANAIANS!

Just30:
Ghana does not run a federal government system but a unitary one
Each district in Ghana has it own town council

Then you should compare your districts to Nigeria's local governments.
We have 774 local governments in Nigeria.

O0XYGEN:
So don't you know there are more secondary schools and tertiary institutions in Ghana than nigeria?
Do you know that?

Are u madd?

There are 37 federal govt universities in Nigeria, 37 state govt universities in Nigeria and about 2 dozen private universities in Nigeria (making about 100).

I did not add the polythecnics, colleges and others oo. How many universities does Ghana have?

O0XYGEN:
Haha I think you need some education on how things work in Ghana.
You are too dumb for my liking.
The district Assemblies
1.Enacts their own laws.
2.The assembly members are elected just us we elect the president n mps.
3.They have their own local parliament.
4.They generate their own revenue and its called internally generated fund.
5.They build roads,schools,hospitals n anything the district needs.

So you see how dumb you are.
You know nothing about Ghana so don't be a fool ok.
Seems you know nothing about Unitary System of Governance.
Ignorant slowpoke

Okay, can you show us a picture of a district parliament in Ghana?

Nigeria has 36 states and each of these states has at least a University, a Polythecnic, Colleges of health, education and other tertiary institutions which they built and maintain.

If every Ghanaian district has their own university, then Ghana should be having hundreds of government universities. So how many universities are there in Ghana?

Can you show us official links of the expenditures, internal generated revenues, taxation systems and budgets of your districts??

O0XYGEN:
I hope you didn't see only Human Development Index?
Hahahaha
Ghana beats all west Africa countries in everything.
Cape Verde only beats Ghana in just 2 indexes.
But Ghana beats nigeria Iin ALL indexes not just human development but ALL

Literacy rate
- Nigeria 59.60%; Ghana 76.60%

Access to improved water
- Nigeria 68.50%; Ghana 88.70%

Acccess to electricity
- Nigeria 45%; Ghana 80%

Mobile penetration
- Nigeria 83.00%; Ghana 133%

HIV Prevalence rate
- Nigeria 3.17% Ghana 1.40%

Maternal mortality per 100,000 live births
- Nigeria 814; Ghana 319

Infant Mortality per 1000 live births
- Nigeria 71; Ghana 36

Life Expectancy at birth
- Nigeria 53.4 years; Ghana 66.6 years

HDI
- Nigeria 0.51; Ghana 0.58

GINI index
- Nigeria 43; Ghana 39

Visa free score (passport)
- Nigeria 44; Ghana 61

Are u just a natural occuring fool or what?

Hiv rate, literacy rate, maternal and infant mortality rates e.t.c They are all classified under Human indexes.

Differentiate Human development index (which is the overall computation of all Human indexes) from Human indexes.
Should i speak Ashanti for your first?

Cape verde is better than Ghana in everything.

O0XYGEN:
Your foolishness is something else.
Why are you fools rather trooping to Ghana like refugees and not the other way round rather?
Its just because Ghana is far far far far better than that zoo you hail from.
Continue living in denial.
Who cares.

Nigerians are found in Niger republic, Mali, Liberia, Chad, Burkina faso and all over the world! Does this mean all these countries are better than Nigeria?

Lebanese and Chinese are all over the world including your own Ghana, does this make Ghana better than China and Lebanon?

Are u Ghanaians just irredemable fools or what?

O0XYGEN:
Dumb.
In Ghana we also have over 230 Districts/Municipal /Metropolitan Assemblies which operates independently from the central government.
They also have their own budget.
If we add that to the central budget do you know how much we gonna get?
Nonsense

See this dunderhead.

Do your districts enact their own laws, have their own parliaments and pay their own workers?

Do your districts generate their own internal revenue, do they build and maintain their own schools, universities, hospitals and factories?

Do your districts engage in independent exportation of their own products? do they partner independently with foreign countries for development?

You fools think Nigeria is your mate abi?

According to the two irredemable fools @O0XYGEN and Just30 we have here.

I hereby declare Cape verde to be the best country in West Africa, since they have the highest human and development indexes in West Africa.

hahahaha (useless comic creatures called Ghanaians).

DonnieTheGreat:
#1 Nigeria is not Backward

#2 This is how Big economies work.

Even the Great America has only 4/5 states to be proud of. Namely

1. California,
2.Las vegas
3. NewYork
4.Miami
5.Texas (they claim to be their own country)


These states account for most of America's huge GDP and sort of carry the rest of baby America on their shoulders.
most of the rest of America are just like the rest of Africa......nothing much to write home about. Its just the nature of capitalism. It always results in Equality. You understand?

My brother, you made some few mistakes.

Las Vegas and Miami are not the states but largest cities.
Las vegas is in State of Nevada while Miami is in state of Florida.

O0XYGEN:
You are too stupid and dumb.
Is it only human development index we are talking about?
In the case of Ghana and nigeria ,Ghana is ranked ahead of nigeria in ALL indexes.
That's different from the scenario u r trying to create.

Oya mention the other indexes here apart from Human index.

Ghana can never compare Cape verde in any index whatsoever. Cape verde has the highest and best indexes of anything in West Africa. So, should we now conclude that Cape verde is the best country in West Africa?

Hage:
@Nowenuse, according to the CIA World Factbook, the revenue and expenditure components of the budgets of Nigeria and Ghana are:

Nigeria

Revenues : $11.4 billion

Expenditures : $21.21 billion (2016 est.)

*** GDP (official exchange rate): $415.1 billion (2015 est.)

Ghana

Revenues: $9.068 billion

Expenditures: $11.55 billion (2016 est.)

***GDP (official exchange rate): $42.76 billion (2015 est.)


Take a look, especially at the little difference in their revenues in comparison with their respective GDP and population figures. I think this is shameful on the part of Nigeria.

It's mostly a waste of time defending this country.

Political and fiscal federalism is the only way forward due to it's bias for productivity and competition among its constituent units.

The mistake you guys and even many make is that they take only the Federal govt statistics to represent Nigeria.

What about our state governments? They have their own statistics as well, which when added together will be larger.

O0XYGEN:
Tell us the countries with high human indexes than Germany

Canvt you see how stupid you are?

So u don't know that up to ten or more countries in Europe rank better than Germany in Human index?

Try Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Liechtenstein, Monaco, Austria, Switzerland, Ireland, Iceland e.t.c

O0XYGEN:
Hahahaha are u no more talking about population?
You were saying Ghana is ranked ahead of nigeria in everything because our population is small.
But China with its huge population is still ranked ahead of nigeria in everything.
nigeria is just a useless poor underdeveloped country so shut up.

Is China the only country populated than Naija? Can't u see how your stupidity works?

China is controlling it's population with brutal force, that is why it managed to fare better.

Why not talk about India, Pakistan and Bangladesh? Who have the same type of government and colonial histories like Nigeria?? It's just like me comparing Ghana to Australia.

Just30:
you keep pulling the population card to justify why you are backward

Do u know how many European countries have better human indexes than Germany? Does that stop Germany from becoming the European superpower and leader of the EU?

O0XYGEN:
Another idiot.

China -1.3 Billion people
nigeria -180million.

Why is nigeria not ranked ahead of China in everything?

China is far far ahead of nigeria in everything so what are you talking about.
Go to hell with your childish analysis

Only a nincompoo will compare China where people are forced and imprisoned to have only 1 child with a country like Nigeria where citizens enjoy freedom of rights.

O0XYGEN:
Sports? Have you achieved more in sports than Ghana?
Hahahaha I don't see the sense in what you've written.
How is population, mouth,influence (don't even know the people u guys cn influence ),achievements (maybe bokoharam n ebola), land mass,natural resources etc became an achievement of a country.
Hahahahahahahahahaha

I never saw electricity, schools,hospitals, security, better roads, potable water systems,etc.
You need a brain surgery.
Your stupidity is legendary.
Hahaha

Idiots! Can u guys show me another African country where productive citizens are concentrated in witch camps?

O0XYGEN:
All west African countries are smaller than Ghana but Ghana is ranked ahead of them in everything.
You see how stupid you look.
Ghana is ranked ahead of nigeria in everything apart from GDP.
nigeria is a useless country so shut up

Scallywag
Is Ghana ranked ahead of Cape verde?
How many of those countries have the kind of golds and minerals Ghana have?

O0XYGEN:
Hahahaha slowpoke.
Is China not ranked ahead of nigeria in everything?
Is your population even closer to them?
Hahahahahahahahahaha foolish idiot from a useless country
Apart from GDP Ghana is ranked ahead of nigeria in everything.
Fool.

Only a first class imbecille will compare China to Nigeria.
China is a communist and fundamentalist country where the voice of the people is not heard and people are forced to do whatever the govt pleases.
China has been existing as a country for thousands of years with some of the world's best civilizations. They have adopted a unifying language and culture hundreds of years ago.
The chinese started building their country a long time before Nigeria was even colonized and brought together by the British.

Animal, why don't u compare Nigeria with Pakistan and Bangladesh? These are countries with a similar colonial history with Nigeria and population.
